Martha Stewart Weddings magazine is renowned for creative and unique ideas for an amazing wedding day. Their Spring issue dubbed, “The Color Issue,” doesn’t disappoint when it comes to bright and colorful suggestions. On newsstands now, check out their jewelry feature, “Dramatic Duos,” starting on page 262. “Diamonds shine bright on their own, but they take on a whole new sparkle and personality when coupled with colored gems” explain the Martha Stewart Weddings experts. We agree with their choice of our classic 3-stone emerald ring flanked with trilliant cut diamonds set in platinum and 18K yellow gold.

Omi Privé has been awarded the first ever “Platinum Craftsmanship Award” in the fifth annual Platinum Innovation Awards. Each year, Platinum Guild International hosts the prestigious Innovation Awards for outstanding platinum design in a variety of categories.

During the 2014 Innovation Awards Editor’s Day in New York City, Platinum Guild International recognized Omi Privé’s superior work in platinum and specially created the “Platinum Craftsmanship Award.” Competition organizers were extremely impressed by the attention to detail and high quality of craftsmanship seen in every Omi Privé piece.

Omi Privé submitted four handcrafted platinum designs to the competition, including a 20.02 carat oval sapphire and diamond ring, a three-stone sapphire and diamond ring, pear shape sapphire and diamond earrings, and a pair of earrings featuring an exquisite 13.60 carats total weight pair of Colombian emeralds. The newly announced Craftsmanship Award is based on overall quality of workmanship, rather than the design of one particular piece. “All of our designs are crafted here in Los Angeles with hand-drawn platinum wire,” explains Niveet Nagpal, Designer and President of Omi Privé. “This enables us to ensure the utmost quality of every piece we create.”

Succeeding the official launch of Omi Privé’s new web site, and attending the AGTA GemFair in Tucson, has deduced a central fact: this is the year for COLOR. From in-demand pinks to alluring double halo designs, below are the top 10 Privé pieces noticed, desired, and adored into 2014.

We enjoyed watching the Red Carpet last night (after it dried out from a sprinkler SNAFU!). At Omi Privé we love to present the most colorful and elegant jewelry designs, which always make the wearer stand out in a crowd! Below we suggest some of our latest designs to compliment the fashion seen at this year’s Golden Globes:

Cate Blanchett won Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama, for her roll in “Blue Jasmine”. Our 3-stone sapphire and diamond ring is a good way to play up the “Blue”!

Elizabeth Moss looked stunning in a black and deep red dress while accepting her Best Actress in a miniseries or TV Movie award for her role in “Top of the Lake”. This marquise shape ruby ring is a perfect compliment to the geometric shapes seen in her dress.

Jennifer Lawrence was one of the lone few who accessorized with color at the awards. Her simple white and black dress pairs well with platinum and diamond drop emerald earrings.

Expectant mother, Drew Barrymore, looked so sweet in her pink and orange leaf adorned gown. We’ve got the perfect pink sapphire ring for this dress or anytime (since she is expecting another girl!). The rose gold accents are a nice touch that play off the cushion shaped center stone and halo of round pink sapphires.

Julia Roberts wowed with her interesting dress-shirt-combo at the Globes this year. To add a little color to any black and white ensemble, classic ruby and diamond earrings are a great choice (and match her nail polish!).

Maria Menounos was pretty in pink with some “hidden” details in the cutouts of her bright gown. Our 11.24 carat pink sapphire ring holds the surprise of rose gold detailing and a round peek-a-boo pink sapphire on the profile.

This green tourmaline and yellow gold Omi Privé ring is perfect for Reese’s aqua gown and her new “long-bob” blonde hair.

Taylor Swift’s uniquely colored dress, similar to the Pantone color, Cayenne, is a perfect spicy match for this spinel and diamond ring!
